I figured I would start a thread on this topic. Feel free to contribute. I'll start this one with a whopper! This is a coin I sourced out of the US for a good friend of mine, who has an impressive collection Two Dollar errors. A wonderful double clip, with the added bonus of a core that was placed into a hole bored off-centre in the nickel planchet.

This one was picked up in the Geoffrey Bell Coin Expo spring auction as part of an error lot. Someone else wanted this one too, as they pushed me to my maximum bid. I really like this one, and even somewhat impressed that it had circulated. Both are healthy-sized clips, and this coin weighs only 2.23 grams.

Here is another double clipped coin... of sorts. One is an incomplete punched planchet, with a clip on the same planchet.

A double clip, with a 12-sided collar die. It makes deciphering the Blakesley Effect and other determining factors a bit tougher.
